Answer:

2 hours

Explanation:

given that the calorie burn rates are:

swimming: 400 cal / hour

rollerblading: 600 cal / hour

If he swims for 3 hours, he will burn:

400 cal / hour x 3 hours

= 1200 cal

Since his goal is 2400 calories, the number of calories that he has left to burn after swimming is:

2400 - 1200

= 1200 calories.

Number of hours of rollerblading to burn 1200 calories

= 1200 calories ÷ 600 calories per hour

= 2 hours
